Nico Paz Reflects on His Wild Move in the Game

During the Serie A clash between Como and Sassuolo on Friday night, Nico Paz once again showcased his talent. The Argentine prodigy provided an assist in Como’s 2-0 victory, marking his fifth assist of the season. He also attempted an acrobatic overhead kick that nearly became one of the highlights of his young career, but the Neroverdi goalkeeper made a critical save. After the final whistle, the 21-year-old reflected on his near-miss.

“I love our style of play. I tried to score with a ‘chilena,’ which is what they call an overhead kick in Italian, but unfortunately, the goalkeeper made a great save,” he told DAZN. I work hard on that, and maybe next time it will go in. What’s important, however, is the team’s progress. I also had a chance with a header, and that’s thanks to the coach, who always encourages me to fill the penalty area and keep pushing forward to create numerical superiority. It’s really nice to see the fans enjoying our play. Sometimes we take risks with some high-quality technical moves, but that’s how we improve and gain confidence.”
